God forbid I've got smile lines
From laughing with all my friends outside
God forbid I've got cellulite
That shows up in direct noon sunlight
They have a name for every problem
And a price for every man-made solution
They have their stones to throw if you call them
Am I the fool if I do it
God forbid that I wanna dance
And I miss a step and they're filming it
God forbid I say something wrong
Then I change my mind and the grace is gone
They have a name for every problem
And a price for every risk that you're taking
They have a gold star conformity column
Am I the fool if I don't make it
Mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
God forbid I see myself
Through the lens of someone else
Who hates their flaws and won't get help
Whose only aim is fame and wealth
God forbid I wanna change
My father's nose that's on my face
Mother's lips and I erase
Parts of them I can't replace
God forbid I eat the fruit
Take the medicine of youth
Miss the gold that's shining through
The harder parts of human truth
God forbid I lose myself
